Cambridge Central Library |
Self-service is a key feature of the refurbished Cambridge Central Library. The council have invested in new technology that enables customers to do tasks for themselves - meaning they no longer have to stand in queues waiting to be served. A major investment in RFID has made it easy for customers to borrow and return library books.
As a masterclass attendee you can visit the library and see RFID in action using the latest technology.
